A real-time microkernel is the near-minimum amount of software that can provide the mechanisms needed to implement a real-time operating system. Real-time systems are those systems whose response is deterministic in time. In our research a 32-task Real Time Microkernel is designed using which multi tasking can be done on the targeted processor ARM7TDMI. Two sets of functions are developed in this research work. First one is Operating System functions and second is application functions. Operating System functions are mainly for carrying out task creation, multi-tasking, scheduling, context switching and Inter task communication. The process of scheduling and switching the CPU (Central Processing Unit) between several tasks is illustrated in this paper. The number of application functions can vary between 1 to 32. Each of these application functions is created as a task by the microkernel and scheduled by the pre-emptive priority scheduler. Multi tasking of these application tasks is demonstrated in this paper.

The slowscan and TV signal of the Philips SEM 505 and the signal of a TV camera attached to a Leitz fluorescent microscope, were digitized by the data acquisition processor of a Masscomp 5520S computer, which is based on a 16.7 MHz 68020 CPU with 10 Mb RAM memory, a graphics processor with two frame buffers for images with 8 bit / 256 grey values, a high definition (HD) monitor (910 × 1150), two hard disks (70 and 663 Mb) and a 60 Mb tape drive. The system is equipped with Imaging Technology video digitizing boards: analog I/O, an ALU, and two memory mapped frame buffers for TV images of the IP 512 series. The Masscomp computer has an ethernet connection to other computers, such as a Vax PDP 11/785, and a Sun 368i with a 327 Mb hard disk and a SCSI interface to an Exabyte 2.3 Gb helical scan tape drive. The operating system for these computers is based on different versions of Unix, such as RTU 4.1 (including NFS) on the acquisition computer, bsd 4.3 for the Vax, and Sun OS 4.0.1 for the Sun (with NFS).

Facility layout is integrated planning of the flow of a product in an operating system to obtain the most effective and efficient interrelation between workers, materials, machinery, and equipment as well as handling and transferring materials. A company engaged in furniture manufacturing has a problem in its production process, namely, the distance between machines is too far so that it affects the cost of handling materials. Distant workstations are found on profile machines, milling machines, measuring machines, cutting machines. Therefore, improvements must be made to the layout of facilities on the production floor so that facility layout is efficient and material handling costs are reduced. The problem-solving approach used is the Graph Method and CRAFT Algorithm. The results of the research show that material handling costs are reduced by 7.58% or Rp. 17,765 using the CRAFT algorithm.
